Contemplating removal..

Why is removing the Lapband so much easier said than done?!

I've had soo many issues w this.. 5 yrs of great ups and low lows! Lost 60.. Threw up for a year.. Wasn't losing any, just constantly sick. Had it finally slip n had Fluid removed.. Now after 1 1/2 months of liquid/ soft diet. I feel sick.. And it feels Lapband related. So without insurance I have to go to the ER - the Lapband dr says the video looks excellent.. Looks like it fell back into place perfectly... Has anyone heard of this? I'm a nervous wreck to get a fill! It hasn't been successful in the past, and I feel like the pressure from my family n friends is definitely making me lean towards removal. Any suggestions? The dr wants to meet me w next wk to insist on a fill... Would definitely love feedback!!! Thanks guys!
